It is okay if I do not know all the answers about LGBTQ issues or if, at times, my ignorance and misunderstanding becomes obvious. I have permission to ask questions that may appear stupid. I have permission to struggle with these issues and be up-front and honest about my feelings. I am a product of a heterosexist, heterocentric, homophobic, and transphobic culture and I am who I am. I don’t have to feel guilty about what I know or believe, but I do need to take responsibility for what I can do now: • Try to learn as much as I can. • Struggle to change my false/inaccurate beliefs or oppressive attitudes toward lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people. • Work to create a safer world for all people.

  • 2015 Campus Pride Annual Report
    20ANNUAL15 REPORT DEAR CAMPUS PRIDE SUPPORTER, 1 5 On behalf of the Board of Directors, staff and our volunteers, I am excited to share the Campus Pride 2015 Annual Report highlighting our work and achievements this past year. 0 As the founder and the executive director of Campus Pride, I appreciate the tireless dedication and passion of our numerous volunteers who support our programs and 2 services. This year was another year of success as the premier national organization serving LGBTQ youth across the country. In 2015, Campus Pride continued to build our capacity and organizational strength. We moved into new offices and relocated our annual Summer Leadership Academy, “Camp Pride”, to our home of Charlotte, NC. In addition, Campus Pride was a key player in advocating for the passage of the local city nondiscrimination ordinance protecting LGBTQ ANNUAL REPORT citizens. Campus Pride also served as an advocate nationally, authoring a letter to the Common App on the inclusion of optional LGBTQ identity questions on college admission forms. Our Student Leader Network witnessed another year of growth along with a vibrant social media presence. Lastly, our website clearinghouse of resources, including our scholarship database, Trans Policy Clearinghouse, Campus Pride Index and Campus Pride Sports Index witnessed a 20% increase in traffic overall compared to the prior year. CAMPUS PRIDE Campus Pride ended 2015 serving 1,400-plus colleges and universities, which included a diverse array of public, private, 2-year and 4-year campuses. Our online tools and resources assisted student leaders, faculty, staff and administrators at these campus communities in creating safer learning environments and developing LGBTQ-friendly policies, programs and practices.

  • Lgbtq Inclusive Curriculum and Classroom Climate
    LGBTQ INCLUSIVE CURRICULUM AND CLASSROOM CLIMATE On October 2, 2013, the Center for Ethics Education hosted a discussion with Fordham faculty and teaching fellows on creating LGBTQ inclusive classroom experiences. Our discussion included brief presentations by Fordham faculty from different departments and honest discussion illuminating opportunities for and challenges of creating LGBTQ curricula and welcoming classroom climate. Below are recommendations and helpful teaching resources that emerged from this very fruitful interdisciplinary dialogue. LGBTQ Teaching Recommendations In the Classroom Let students know we care for all our LGBTQ students and colleagues because we are a Catholic, Jesuit Institution. Many students may come to Fordham erroneously believing that a Catholic, Jesuit institution must be an unwelcoming place for LGBTQ persons. Including LGBTQ materials and conversations into the classroom can help students understand the characteristics of our university mission that embrace principles of social justice and recognize the dignity and uniqueness of each person. Challenge heterosexist assumptions. Throughout their lives, many LGBTQ students have been given the implicit message that heterosexuality is the norm. In the classroom, the presumption of heterosexuality places an unfair burden on LGBTQ students to silently suffer feelings of exclusion or to “out” themselves. Faculty can reduce that burden by taking a personal inventory of heterosexist assumptions followed by specific actions to demonstrate that we recognize, respect

  • The Lived Experiences of Openly Gay Undergraduate Men Involved in Elected Student Government: a Phenomenological Queering
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE LIVED EXPERIENCES OF OPENLY GAY UNDERGRADUATE MEN INVOLVED IN ELECTED STUDENT GOVERNMENT: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL QUEERING Michael Anthony Goodman Doctor of Philosophy, 2020 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Francine Hultgren, Professor and Chair, Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership, College of Education This is a study at the intersection of sexuality and student involvement in higher education. Exploring the lived experiences of openly gay undergraduate men involved in elected student government, this study enlists a phenomenological queering that unconceals and reveals that which is otherwise hidden in elected student leadership. Eight men were selected for participation in this study, and all identified as openly gay before and after their election to undergraduate student government. These men come from varying U.S. geographies and positions, and conversations and themes were rendered through the methodological approach of hermeneutic phenomenology. Four major themes came from multiple participant conversations and journals. First, these men understood coming out and being out as deeply related to visibility and their work as leaders. They are more than just gay, and at the same time, they just so happen to be gay. Additionally, participants displayed independent ways of being within their outness. For example, some represented a palatable kind of being gay, and some navigated deep religious dissonance and other tensions within the (queer) margins. Re(-)presentation was also a major theme, as participants were advocates for their peers, and were “called” to this work of leadership. Finally, these men were leaders through their identities, and engaged in undergraduate student government as something that was bigger than them, but better because of them.

In- depth interviews with 11 LGBTQ students were conducted to gain an understanding of the perceptions and experiences of gay students with the Greek system. A number of themes emerged, including general decisions to join a Greek fraternity or sorority; the impact of sexual orientation; aspects of the sorority and fraternity lifestyle; gender norms and perceptions of sexuality: males versus females; Greek-Affiliated LGBTQ students: in-house experiences; and perceived reality versus overt discrimination.

  • Fraternities and Sororities by Craig Kaczorowski
    Fraternities and Sororities by Craig Kaczorowski Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2004, glbtq, inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Glbtq students are involved in both traditional Greek-letter societies and in gay-oriented fraternities and sororities. Although many gay and lesbian groups have gained acceptance on college campuses, one area in which openly glbtq students continue to experience discrimination is in the generally conservative Greek system of fraternities and sororities. A large proportion of gay and lesbian students who are members of traditional fraternities and sororities are closeted. Studies have shown that most gay fraternity members stay in the closet for fear of reprisals from their fellow brothers in the fraternity; however, while some exceptions exist, when lesbian and bisexual women have come out to their sorority sisters, reactions are generally more positive and supportive. Traditional Fraternities and Sororities Fraternities are male college student societies formed primarily for social purposes, into which members are initiated by invitation and occasionally by a period of trial known as hazing. However, the practice of hazing has become restricted or prohibited entirely on most college campuses today. Fraternities are usually named by two or three Greek letters; they are therefore also known as Greek-letter societies. Women's Greek-letter societies are commonly known as sororities. The typical Greek-letter society generally owns or rents a house on or near a college campus that is used as a residence hall for members and as a center for social activities. Some fraternities and sororities have only one local organization or chapter; others are nationally organized with chapters at several institutions.
